npx skills add secondsky/sap-skills --skill sap-btp-service-manager -a claude-codeWhat sap-btp-service-manager does
Skill teaches the agent to work with SAP Service Manager: create service instances in Cloud Foundry, Kyma or Kubernetes via smctl, BTP CLI or REST API, configure OAuth2 authentication, register brokers and platforms, manage bindings (ServiceBinding CRD) and access keys. Inside: smctl command reference, templates for Kubernetes operators, role descriptions (subaccount-admin, subaccount-audit) and Service Manager plans.
The smcli repository was archived on September 30, 2025. The tool still works, but for new projects the maintainer recommends installing via Go or considering BTP CLI. Skill draws on 80+ SAP documentation files and 11 support files (templates, references). Requires access to an SAP BTP subaccount and the Subaccount Service Administrator role.
